For your information, I am happy with the minimum wage being right where it is. However I do feel that a skilled worker should be better compensated and there should not be such a big gap between the CEO's and the people who actually do the physical labor.

 

Are you also opposed to the pay gap between the rock star and the guy unloading the sound equipment from the truck?


I am sure the roadies make a fair wage. We can go on and on with examples where yes the worker should be compensated better than they are.
